Guild Karma Tracker

Track and celebrate your guild members' contributions with a simple karma system!

What is Guild Karma?

Guild Karma is a fun, lightweight addon that lets guild members give recognition to each other through a simple "++" system. When someone does something awesome, just type their name followed by ++ in guild chat and they'll earn karma!

Features

✨ **Simple Recognition System**
- Type `PlayerName++` in guild chat to give karma
- Works even if not everyone has the addon installed
- Supports special characters in names (Kaós, José, François, etc.)

🛡️ **Smart Protections**
- Prevents self-karma (no cheating!)
- Only guild members can receive karma
- Validates all names against the guild roster

📊 **Karma Tracking & Leaderboards**
- View top 10 karma holders with `/gk` or `/gk report`
- Check specific player karma with `/gk PlayerName`
- Type `guildkarma` in guild chat to see your own karma

🔄 **Multi-User Sync**
- Sync karma data between all addon users
- Type `gk update` in guild chat to sync everyone's data
- Keeps the highest karma values to prevent data loss
- Perfect for catching up after being offline

💬 **Clean Chat Integration**
- Recipients automatically announce their new karma total
- No spam - single announcements only
- Report leaderboards to guild chat with proper delays

## Commands

**Slash Commands:**
- `/gk` - View top 10 karma holders (private)

2. **Everyone with the addon** automatically tracks the karma
3. **Only the recipient** announces their new total to avoid spam
4. **Players can sync** their data anytime to stay up-to-date
